Rooty the Young Tree Dreams of Umalohokan Fest 2025: A Seedling’s Wish for a Greener Tomorrow at the World Trade Center Manila

Wazzup Pilipinas!?

Rooty is not your usual hero. She’s not a person, or a leader, or even someone with power or influence. Rooty is a young tree — a tiny seedling just beginning to stretch her roots into the soil and reach her fragile leaves toward the sun. She’s not yet tall or mighty. But she dreams. Oh, how she dreams.

One gentle morning, as Rooty swayed in the breeze, she overheard a whisper from a nearby phone screen, tuned in to WazzupPilipinas.com. It spoke of a hopeful event — not yet real, not yet confirmed — called the Umalohokan Fest 2025. A vision, really. A dream whispered by humans who still believe that something beautiful and life-giving can rise for the sake of the Earth.

And Rooty, in her little patch of land, dared to believe it too.

A Dream Waiting to Take Root

Umalohokan Fest 2025 is imagined as a grand gathering of hearts and minds, a celebration of Green Environmental Advocacy, to be held — if the stars align and the support blossoms — at the World Trade Center Manila this December 2025.

Organized by WazzupPilipinas.com, alongside aspiring partners and sponsors who may share the same love for the planet, this festival is envisioned to awaken Filipinos to the power of collective environmental action.

But like Rooty, this idea is still young — a sapling of a plan. It needs sunlight, nurturing, collaboration, and belief to grow into something strong.

Reviving the Ancient Voice of the People

In ancient times, the Umalohokan was the town crier — the one who echoed the voice of the leaders to the people. But in this modern dream, the Umalohokan is not just a messenger. It’s a movement. A revival of community spirit. A call to listen — not just to leaders or laws, but to the Earth herself.

This festival, if realized, would become a living embodiment of that call. It would be a place where voices — of the youth, the elderly, the artists, the farmers, the scientists, and yes, even trees like Rooty — are heard and honored.

A Modest Wish for a Majestic Future

Rooty imagined what the event could look like:

Children learning how to plant and protect.

Students presenting their ideas for cleaner cities.

Artists painting murals of forests and oceans.

Indigenous elders sharing wisdom passed down through the winds of time.

Sustainable businesses offering solutions that honor, not harm, the land.

All these would be possible — but only if enough people believe in the dream.

Rooty’s Plea: “Let Me Grow”

As a young tree, Rooty understands more than anyone the delicate balance of survival. Without care, without community, she knows she may not reach her full glory. But with just enough love — enough water, enough sun, enough protection from harm — she can grow strong and give shade, fruit, and life.

The same goes for Umalohokan Fest 2025.

It is not yet funded. It is not yet finalized. But it is full of heart.

Founder Ross Flores Del Rosario, a passionate advocate for both media and the environment, humbly shares this dream with the world — not as a grand production, but as a wish worth working for. A gathering that could bring the country together in the name of sustainability, culture, and climate hope.

Will You Help Rooty Grow?

Rooty doesn’t ask for much. Just for us to notice. To listen. To care.

To believe that this dream, fragile though it may be, could bloom into something life-changing — if watered by compassion and action.

And if, come December 2025, Umalohokan Fest does bloom at the World Trade Center Manila, Rooty hopes she will be there — just a little taller, a little stronger — watching as thousands join hands to protect the very Earth that raised them.

Because in the end, Rooty knows: every mighty tree once started with a dream and a drop of faith.
